WHO IS JOE BAGEL?Copywriter by day. Blogger by night. Writer of verse in the inbetween hours. Joe Bagel is the terror of Montreal social media, first making a name for himself by impersonating Fairmount Bagel on Twitter and starting a citywide bagel war. After getting fired from MTL Blog and being replaced by an autonomous shitposting robot, Joe Bagel tried his hand at real journalism, but was stopped short by the CBC, who called his attempts "semi-literate" at best. Undeterred, he took to poetry, becoming the first Poet Laureate of Tinder. His efforts were hailed as "Genius" by Esquire Magazine, but after being heckled in the comments section of a Daily Mail article—and then banned from Tinder entirely—Joe Bagel retired from poetry and got a job writing tweets for Cinnabon.

Lured out of the overcarbohydrated abyss by his friend, Fawn Parker (editor of Bad Nudes magazine, writer of Looking Good & Having a Good Time, and aspiring Grimes doppelgänger), Joe Bagel quit his job at Cinnabon, abandoned his Mile End ratnest, and started sleeping under a desk at Champs Sports Bar while working on his comeback attempt: Trapped in Elon's Mansion. Based on a true story, it details the rise and fall of the hallucinating chainsaw maniac "Elon Musk", also known for his roles in running Tesla, SpaceX, PayPal, Neuralink, Solar City, and The Boring Company.

Trapped in Elon's Mansion is a cybercomedy, written in Shakespearean verse. It is the first verse play ever written by a Montreal writer, and the first new verse play to open in North America in over one hundred years.

Run-time should be ~60 to 90 minutes. All patrons of the arts are welcome to arrive a little tipsy.
